Lip Talk | ColourPop Ultra Satin Lip

Thursday, March 24, 2016

Hey pandas :*

Today I'm back with another lip talk with some ColourPop (again) products. Not that long ago they released their Ultra Satin Lip, which is described as"A lightweight, bold lipstick with a Satin
finish. A super comfortable feel and healthy satin look for you lips. Ultra
Satin Lip has a crazy high percentage of pigments for extra intense colour
saturation. This lipstick is extremely long wearing, although not completely
kiss proof– you may leave some marks on your coffee cup!"
Basically they are supposed to be long lasting without being drying, the way their ultra matte lip are.
I picked 4 shades: Tansy, Toolips, Petit Four and Panda

Tansy is described as a "medium-toned yellow brown". It's quite a pretty nude, even though it looks a little bit light (not unwearable tho). This lipstick is a great example of how a color can look different on a arm swatch than on the lips, as you can see the arm swatch is much darker.

This color got my attention after seeing swatches on dark skin ladies because it's a gorgeous nude! Toolips is described as a "deepened plum brown". At first glance it's a brown color but when you pay attention you can actually see the pinkish tone. It's a "my lips but better" type of lipstick and I love it!!

This one is funny because at first when I saw it I wanted it, then I was unsure but after seeing how gorgeous it looks on dark skin I had to get it. Petit Four is described as a "deep charcoal grey". I also have another grey from Melt Cosmetics and I really like this liquid version! It's surprisingly pretty wearable, even for not so bold people I think!

Fun fact: Panda is one nickname of mine lol. So the sole reason I bought this one is because of the name :p It's good also that the color is pretty so it's a win win :D
Panda is described as a "deep pink violet".

ColourPop claim that these are long-lasting and they definitely are right on this one! I pretty much wore them all and I had meals, drinks, and I still had some on my lips. Contrary to the Ultra Matte, they are not drying at all, but they feel like a matte lipstick so it's a win win for everybody. If you didn't like the Ultra Matte I guarantee you will LOVE these. I love the Ultra Matte so I wasn't really expecting to care much about these, but honestly they are so comfortable you cannot not love them.
One thing I would say though is that even though they are quite pigmented, I still needed 2 or 3 coats to be completely satisfied. They are also a bit tacky but it doesn't really bother me because it's not like lipglosses where everything gets glued to it so it's fine.
Anyways, I have my eyes on more colors so I will definitely be buying more and I hope they release more colors as well.
